The Witches #2
The Trial
As the civi war raged on fear rode abroad on a nag with eyes of fire and teeth of flame. Every man lived in terror of his neighbour, and betrayal lurked in the shadow of every penny ale-house. It was a time of horror and desperation, a tiome for sons of darkness like Robert Monk to flourish.
With the murderous gypsy brothers Daniel and Abraham Mendoza and the raddled whore Liza Hall, Monk pursues his profitable trade in torture and terror. As the trail of multilated corpses grows, so does his fortune. John Ferris has sworn to hunt Monk to the death. But now he has fallen into the hands of the witchfinder himself and only the giant negro Brutus York can save him.

Book two of The Witches series continues to follow John Ferris and the path to revenge he has sworn against witchfinder Robert Monk. I won't get into spoilers but once again this was well-written and entertaining. It's a great combination of horror and adventure with an interesting cast of characters, plenty of action and violence, plus sex and sleaze. What more could you want?!

Book 2. Gets the plot going quickly and doesn't really let up until the end.
